Like, seriously? I've had a Tizen TV for almost a year now and every minute of using it I'm cursing myself for not buying an LG (the bezels were slightly thinner on the Samsung and I figured Tizen couldn't be too bad).
It's a complete disaster! The menu system is infinitely worse than even Sony's dumb TVs, which is saying something, becase Sony can't make software for shit.
A short list:
- auto-brightnes does literally nothing
- changing the brightness manually requires to you go 6 levels deep into the menu
- the bottom quick settings bar thing has a bunch of stuff hidden in an invisible tile that shows up only after you try to navigate over the edge, which is the most undiscoberable crap ever
- the quick settings contain exactly two settings anyone would care about, the rest are useless and obviously non-comfigurable
- can't hide the giant cursor when screen mirroring
- can't set a default app to launch into so it takes 4 clicks and half a minute to turn on the TV (we have an app instead of a cable box because wasn't the kind od the point of smart TVs??)
- can't install apps without a Samsung account, can't remote control it from a phone without a samsung account
- the phone remote control can't enter text!!!!! You have to use direction keys and a shitty on-screen keyboard
- no always-on cast receiver
- DLNA randomly disappeares, can play like 4 codecs. Half of those you can't even scrub in and the colors get weirdly hue-shifted when playing HDR video (despite the TV supposedly being HDR10, I believe)
This is as much as I care to type on my phone, but I'm sure if I asked someone in my family who actually still uses the thing, I'd get another 10 lines to add at least.
